This is what happens when you put someone in a position as a political favor..who doesn't have much experience with the agency they are going to run. He has practically destroyed the post office. They can't keep workers, mail is slow or actually going missing. It has greatly affected my business and personal dealings...missing documents, delayed info to do timely business. Mail being sent to my local town is trucked 50 to 60 miles to be processed, then sent back . How is that efficient??
He's ruined USPS, rates have went way up, service has gotten worst, packages misdirected, lost, sometimes they just set at a USPS for days before moving...he needs to be removed, fired. He should never have been the PMG...Fire HIM NOW...
This his consolidations and him implementing GSA (less mail flown more mail transported by truck) and btw Allegedly his fam members open trucking business

@@Mrs.S.S the police department is a service they are funded by the taxpayers. The Postal Service is funded by sales and then I guess when we go negative we get some tax dollars so we are not a service. We are a business.
@@DeeOne4U1983 maybe you didn't watch the video or just missed where Rand Paul was on his case for hiring for government employees over private contractors.
Also we need to remove DEI from the postal service. We need background checks and drug testing for new employees. We need to remove incompetent postmasters and supervisors. Our work place should not be a hostile work environment. Also we need education on paying all employees correctly. Employees are constantly fighting to be paid for the job that they are doing. People are quitting because of unfair pay practices and hostile work environments.
And yet he gives performance bonuses to many of the administration team , as well as himself while cutting the wages of 66 percent of rural carriers nationwide. Many lost 10-12 thousand dollars a year! Great way to save money....carriers are quitting and giving up their pensions due to his "improvements".
Thank the workers not the bosses! The bosses don't do nothing they just stand there and watch you work or in a office watching if they go hit their numbers SMH.
@@bull1sMany years ago I worked with a usps contractor. I recall usps workers had a joke about the USPS new employee test. A bag of mail is on the dock and HR person points at it. If the applicant puts it on a truck, they are is a dockworker. If they ask if its incoming or outgoing, they go to mail sorting. If they ask where it goes, they are a carrier. If they look at the ceiling with a blank stare while sipping a latte, they are management / boss.
He talks like everything is improving yet managers are sorting mail instead of clerks or mail handlers for hours at the Charleston WV P&DC. How does that make any sense
Not a SINGLE question about how the DeJoy could reduce the harassment of employees. You could reduce the costs of the postal service by not harassing employees.
The employees that are harassed or think they are harassed... deserve it .. and probably wouldnt be able to hold employment for 6 months at another job .. with the crap they pull .. and then cry harassment
It is absolutely a toxic work environment. Management are untuchable DEI that fail upwards. They pluck box checkers and family and friends. Low to no skill mail handlers etc and put them in charge of managing important departments. MASSIVE costs to postal service and they are never accountable in fact the more you fail the better the promotion.
@jkoziar75 100%... if some of our workers put in half the effort of doing the actual job they signed up for, than complaining and trying to find a way to give away work.. there would be no issue. But we keep them on for 20-30yrs to make a career while others do their work for them
Letter carrier that’s does the leg work every day. One thing I’ve learned about the way USPS handles most situations: if it makes sense, we won’t do it.
I have suggested for years the routes be prepared in the afternoons and ran in the mornings early . This would ensure the safety of all the carriers Plus help with the performance of all the carriers.
And when do you suggest technicians be able to work on the vehicles that y’all don’t take care of/ under-report issues until the 30min repair turns into hours of not days of repair? The last thing we need is for technicians to get to stations at 7am only for the vehicle to be loaded up with mail or already gone…
What they need to do is have part-time sorters sort the packages and case the mail at night, and have part-time RCA and CCAs carry the routes in the morning
I hope they are demanded to open their books! I also hope that they at least ask for feedback from postal employees at the local level of each office of where they see waste fraud and abuse.
I’d really love for someone to ask him how much the organization pays out in greivances because management is incapable of following the existing contract.
Maybe if management could fire 20% of the workforce that does nothing but complain and file a greivance just to get out of work the PO would be like UPS
Exactly. There is no 8 hour list anymore. It's mandatory overtime every day. The amount of unneccessary overtime USPS pays out is staggering. Easy solution, make every route easy to do in 8 hours. When the carrier finishes the route, they go home. Pay carriers their full 8 even if they finish undertime and go home. This will encourage employees to not goof around and milk the overtime. This will also reduce the number of sick calls. If I'm feeling slightly sick I call off because I know I'm going to have to do a long ass route that isn't timed to 8 and will probably end up being there for 10 hours. If a route is easy to do in 8 and I can go home when I finish, I'll go into work, knock it out in 6 or 7 hours and go home.
46:15 When she schools Dejoy on real math and calculations vs "postal math" this dude is an absolute clown and I really hope important people read these comments because many are true and Letter Carriers have had ENOUGH ABUSE
Some statements are correct on both sides, but most importantly, FC has shrunk because we have failed to protect it and have it delivered in time. This is what causes our customers to use other means. Taking new employees in without entrance exams, allowing them to become career with benefits, creating an entitled attitude, no real commitment, and a bigger pool of union members that has clogged how we do business at an extra cost, a long with delaying FC mail, has been the worst management decision and action!!!
There is no way electric vehicles will work. That will sink the postal service. The infrastructure will cost way too much. Buy a toyota that will last forever and be reliable.
They already arent working. Im a rural carrier and been in touch with carriers from a few offices and they die mid route all the time, charge doesnt last for shit, horrible in the snow and they are having problems putting in chargers to some offices because post offices werent built with the assumption EVs would be around in the future. Oh and most of our chargers are already getting stolen just sitting out there waiting to be put in 🤡 Yeah its gonna be a shit show when they pull all LLVs, Metris and ProMasters. Not even the tip of the iceberg for what carriers have to deal with too unfortunately
Paul's entire life is fiction. DEI nepo baby career politician who brags about Union busting in Kentucky meanwhile, Kentucky is one of the poorest states in the US who receive 19.3 billion in Federal aid every year. Ya, Paul is all about "small government" but has no problem putting his greasy little hands out asking big daddy government to bail him out. LOL. I would love to see Rand refuse to take aid from the Federal Government for his state.
My now deceased grandparents were retired, loyal, lifelong postal workers. My father, sister and I grew up as postal babies. For me and my sister, this was during the 60's-70's. We spent a good amount of time in our local post offices visiting and being shown off to my grandparent's co-workers and Supervisors. We received lots of hugs and cheek pinches. Every weekend my grandmother would have me walk the block from her home to her local post office where she worked, to take a full thermos of hot coffee to her Supervisor who worked every weekend. That was back in the days when a child could walk a block without an adult in a large metropolitan city. America was much more innocent back then, and people were much kinder and helpful. Those are good memories. It's sad to see what has become of the U.S. postal service over the years. So sad. Our govt is corrupt and over bloated. We need to weed out the corruption and begin spending OUR money on OUR country and needed departments and services. I'm hoping the Trump administration will do what is needed.
To that senator paul, FOH U do not know the PO. Higher outside contracts is not the answer. Each station should have 1 management 1 supervisor and 2-3 204b’s, if we shortstaffed have them carry mail. They get paid enough. You waist money in management like hell.
Management is not properly trained and they instruct carriers to curtail mail so they can make their numbers look good. So it looks like a decrease in work hours
How many new supervisors and new "teams" to attack the city letter carrier have been created since dejoy has been in office? We have an office of 40 carriers, we don't need a Postmaster, a manager, and 4 204bs
No one ever asks the question, where’s the $100B that was paid into the “postal healthcare prefunding mandate” of 2007? They saw the usps as a cash cow during the e-commerce boom, and bilked the living shit out of them.
Sen. Paul doesn’t understand the postal service. You can not compare USPS to ups/fedex they drop packages off at the post office. They tried contacting out postal delivery years ago “ it was a disaster “ mail delivery is easy to understand from behind a desk, but for the employees doing the work it is grueling.
I like Hawley. But he is just way off base with his assumptions here. WAAAAy off. He should be looking at the managment in the field mismanagement is more like it. Totally inccompetant. 99% of the workers are doing an excellent job. Aside of the management's toxic workplace. If that were fixed. there would be no need to slow down and redirect mail or cull the workforce.
Also, when Rand Paul stops receiving 19.3 billion dollars in Federal Government aid every year for his home state of Kentucky (one of the poorest states in the US) USPS will stop asking for aid as well.
I think the problem is in over management. How can you have a station manager that can't make any management decisions. They have to call upper management
Sorry, but the Senate or the House complaining about money and time wasted, do nothing employees, and nothing getting, done to any other organization..is efffing rich!!!
He worries more about his retirement plan than getting me my meds on time to keep me and other retirees alive. Remember the good old days when if you mail a card to your neighbor in your hometown it never left your hometown and was delivered the next day. Now it has to travel 50 miles away and then return 50 miles back to the hometown post office where if you are lucky it is delivered in the next day or two. It cost you 15 cents and now it cost 50 cents because of in increased in fuel to go that 100 miles. My nephew is a mail carrier in San Jose, Ca and was badly beaten by someone trying to steal his truck.
@@austinray9369 In Kansas it has to go to Wichita and then return back from where it started. They are not allowed to do any mail sorting in the local post offices

I invite you all suits to carry mail in the winter for a week and in the hottest summer week. Then you tell me how much money I should make. I also request to not curtail my mail during your delivery week. Lets see your competency. Your pay will also be equivalent to what top pay carrier is. And no rest stop to be included lol.

That’s more money for you! Pick it up and put it on your auxiliary assistance paper. making people come to post office makes your route look shorter and gives more money to clerks and less to you!! I encourage bills paid by mail and messages sent by mail so the mail carrier can keep a job. People being lazy is a delivery person best friend!!
You must not understand the job. You don't work for the United States Postal. You work for the United States Postal Service. UPS will pick up their packages from their home if they want to give the business to them. This is a service that we are supposed to provide, encouraging our customers to use USPS. Your customer can submit an online request the day prior for package pickup that you will receive at your case the next morning. Look into that, it will probably satisfy your customers needs and you will be able to plan for it on the days the customer wants pickups done . Picking up their packages is our job
As a 4 year mail carrier I love my job. I came from corporate America and those huge private companies as a financial advisor. The senator from Kentucky is out of his league. How can you say that if a union is the problem in a state then that company should move to a different state?? The senator should come out here and deliver 200 packages a day plus mail in less than nine hours over a 14 mile hike. I do my job with the upmost integrity and these people are out of touch.
my last PM leaves nothing but a wake of grievances everywhere they attend and they won't get rid of them literally over twice the PM's annual salary in grievances.
Exactly! I get more mail and packages than ever but somehow my route gets cut from 44k to 42J…. 20 years I’ve put in to get screwed!! Whose pay decreases when doing more!!

People hate on the USPS but it's actually one of the best carriers considering they mail to every address in the USA at great prices
We Deserve the Money for for the work we do everyday. And We are only being offered 1.3 percent raise! That is a spit on your face!
Usps is a service and you spend money on a service. It's not a loss. What is the matter with these people.
This is what happens when you put someone in a position as a political favor..who doesn't have much experience with the agency they are going to run. He has practically destroyed the post office. They can't keep workers, mail is slow or actually going missing. It has greatly affected my business and personal dealings...missing documents, delayed info to do timely business. Mail being sent to my local town is trucked 50 to 60 miles to be processed, then sent back . How is that efficient??
He's ruined USPS, rates have went way up, service has gotten worst, packages misdirected, lost, sometimes they just set at a USPS for days before moving...he needs to be removed, fired. He should never have been the PMG...Fire HIM NOW...
This his consolidations and him implementing GSA (less mail flown more mail transported by truck) and btw Allegedly his fam members open trucking business
Start at the top if you’re looking for cuts!
These committees are a joke. Cut work hours, deliver more addresses, deliver all addresses 6 days a week…. Impossible for any organization to be successful
Post office is a service not a business
You will never survive
Exactly! There is no bottom line..
He trying to PRIVATIZE
@@Mrs.S.S the police department is a service they are funded by the taxpayers. The Postal Service is funded by sales and then I guess when we go negative we get some tax dollars so we are not a service. We are a business.
@@DeeOne4U1983 maybe you didn't watch the video or just missed where Rand Paul was on his case for hiring for government employees over private contractors.
Crooks and contracts, working craft employees to the bone for $55,000.
Historical 1.3% raise 😂😂
Also we need to remove DEI from the postal service. We need background checks and drug testing for new employees. We need to remove incompetent postmasters and supervisors. Our work place should not be a hostile work environment. Also we need education on paying all employees correctly. Employees are constantly fighting to be paid for the job that they are doing. People are quitting because of unfair pay practices and hostile work environments.
The post office does not have DEI
I underwent an FBI background check 26 years ago. We just had a CCA “disappear” found out he got arrested for child porn, he’s now in jail for years!
All of what she's asking for is already there duh.. we're taking about our contract now lady.. now is the time
100%
And yet he gives performance bonuses to many of the administration team , as well as himself while cutting the wages of 66 percent of rural carriers nationwide. Many lost 10-12 thousand dollars a year!
Great way to save money....carriers are quitting and giving up their pensions due to his "improvements".
@@gracesams1212 that’s exactly what they wanted to happen in this 10 year plan smh
@deemajor123 totally agree. They can't lay us off contractually..so they are trying to force us out voluntarily.
Senate should ask postal carriers . At least they’ll get a honest answer!
We deserve more money 💰
What happened to the money they stole from the rural carriers through RRECS?
They wasted it on paper products from all the disputes. Lol
Facts! And this new MOU that passed upsetted alot of carriers.
United We Scan
@sherrymartin8166 EXACTLY!!
I'D LOVE TO HAVE SN ANSWER there should be carrier clerk and Mailhandler union reps in this meeting
USPS is best government service in the world! Thank you postal workers and the bosses that keep operations going.
Thank the workers not the bosses! The bosses don't do nothing they just stand there and watch you work or in a office watching if they go hit their numbers SMH.
@@bull1sMany years ago I worked with a usps contractor. I recall usps workers had a joke about the USPS new employee test.
A bag of mail is on the dock and HR person points at it. If the applicant puts it on a truck, they are is a dockworker. If they ask if its incoming or outgoing, they go to mail sorting. If they ask where it goes, they are a carrier. If they look at the ceiling with a blank stare while sipping a latte, they are management / boss.
Bosses sit and do nothing. They don't deserve any thanks. They waste money
Stop management from tampering with payroll accounts
We all need to walk out!! Less talking and more action. They need us carriers.
This is just false, we are in the top 20th largest city in America and it took 5 business days to get s piece of mail 6 miles down the road
Ask this Mf about non compliance. Let’s see how much they waste because they refuse to comply with grievances.
You think the post office should be privatized? And you care about Americans??
He talks like everything is improving yet managers are sorting mail instead of clerks or mail handlers for hours at the Charleston WV P&DC. How does that make any sense
Thats because the clerks and Mailhandlers are lazy and want to screw the system
Indeed same here
Screw renfroe and dejoy
They get $11k raises every year.
No baby oil
Not a SINGLE question about how the DeJoy could reduce the harassment of employees. You could reduce the costs of the postal service by not harassing employees.
The employees that are harassed or think they are harassed... deserve it .. and probably wouldnt be able to hold employment for 6 months at another job .. with the crap they pull .. and then cry harassment
It is absolutely a toxic work environment. Management are untuchable DEI that fail upwards. They pluck box checkers and family and friends. Low to no skill mail handlers etc and put them in charge of managing important departments. MASSIVE costs to postal service and they are never accountable in fact the more you fail the better the promotion.
@jkoziar75 do you work as a city letter carrier at USPS?
We only harass those who don’t come to work always calling in, or complaining about being at work 😂
@jkoziar75 100%... if some of our workers put in half the effort of doing the actual job they signed up for, than complaining and trying to find a way to give away work.. there would be no issue. But we keep them on for 20-30yrs to make a career while others do their work for them
DeJoy can't handle the heat, he needs to be fired or step down.
Letter carrier that’s does the leg work every day. One thing I’ve learned about the way USPS handles most situations: if it makes sense, we won’t do it.
I have suggested for years the routes be prepared in the afternoons and ran in the mornings early . This would ensure the safety of all the carriers Plus help with the performance of all the carriers.
And when do you suggest technicians be able to work on the vehicles that y’all don’t take care of/ under-report issues until the 30min repair turns into hours of not days of repair? The last thing we need is for technicians to get to stations at 7am only for the vehicle to be loaded up with mail or already gone…
What they need to do is have part-time sorters sort the packages and case the mail at night, and have part-time RCA and CCAs carry the routes in the morning
Vote no on 1.3%
VOTE NO!!!
Vote NO. RenFRAUD also needs to go!
I hope they are demanded to open their books! I also hope that they at least ask for feedback from postal employees at the local level of each office of where they see waste fraud and abuse.
Get dejoy out of here, the continue to report losses but some how management continue to get bonuses and the real workers get shafted.
THIS!
Management bonuses are based on the performance of letter carriers! You work harder they make more money! Sad! 😡
@ yup. Very infuriating.
I’d really love for someone to ask him how much the organization pays out in greivances because management is incapable of following the existing contract.
Maybe if management could fire 20% of the workforce that does nothing but complain and file a greivance just to get out of work the PO would be like UPS
They could save $ by properly staffing offices instead of mandatory overtime letter carriers have to work pretty much everyday.
Exactly. There is no 8 hour list anymore. It's mandatory overtime every day. The amount of unneccessary overtime USPS pays out is staggering. Easy solution, make every route easy to do in 8 hours. When the carrier finishes the route, they go home. Pay carriers their full 8 even if they finish undertime and go home. This will encourage employees to not goof around and milk the overtime. This will also reduce the number of sick calls. If I'm feeling slightly sick I call off because I know I'm going to have to do a long ass route that isn't timed to 8 and will probably end up being there for 10 hours. If a route is easy to do in 8 and I can go home when I finish, I'll go into work, knock it out in 6 or 7 hours and go home.
46:15 When she schools Dejoy on real math and calculations vs "postal math" this dude is an absolute clown and I really hope important people read these comments because many are true and Letter Carriers have had ENOUGH ABUSE
Start doing your job then and stop complaining.
@@Jcont1963..Jcunt1963 is right
@@Jcont1963are you DeJoyless? You reply to every comment.
He is a liar he doesn’t talk to his postal employees what a joke, I think it’s time for a new career
Some statements are correct on both sides, but most importantly, FC has shrunk because we have failed to protect it and have it delivered in time. This is what causes our customers to use other means. Taking new employees in without entrance exams, allowing them to become career with benefits, creating an entitled attitude, no real commitment, and a bigger pool of union members that has clogged how we do business at an extra cost, a long with delaying FC mail, has been the worst management decision and action!!!
There is no way electric vehicles will work. That will sink the postal service. The infrastructure will cost way too much.
Buy a toyota that will last forever and be reliable.
Especially anywhere that actually has hard winters. Just dumb
They already arent working. Im a rural carrier and been in touch with carriers from a few offices and they die mid route all the time, charge doesnt last for shit, horrible in the snow and they are having problems putting in chargers to some offices because post offices werent built with the assumption EVs would be around in the future. Oh and most of our chargers are already getting stolen just sitting out there waiting to be put in 🤡 Yeah its gonna be a shit show when they pull all LLVs, Metris and ProMasters. Not even the tip of the iceberg for what carriers have to deal with too unfortunately
Hopefully they will change course on that and listen to the people that know they aren’t working
The amount of fiction that comes out of the mouths of DeJoy and Paul is astounding.
All he does is stutter and cough😂
Paul's entire life is fiction. DEI nepo baby career politician who brags about Union busting in Kentucky meanwhile, Kentucky is one of the poorest states in the US who receive 19.3 billion in Federal aid every year. Ya, Paul is all about "small government" but has no problem putting his greasy little hands out asking big daddy government to bail him out. LOL. I would love to see Rand refuse to take aid from the Federal Government for his state.
He has the tone of an Mob Boss
Definitely sounds like a cronie and behaves like one with his snide and petty remarks.
This is how you know crime is alive
The only time I’ve disagreed with Paul. Yeah let’s cut their pay and benefits after most carriers just saw 10-25k pay cuts.
Yea, he doesn't get that we aren't on a pension plan anymore either
That should retain help,
Not! What a fool
My now deceased grandparents were retired, loyal, lifelong postal workers. My father, sister and I grew up as postal babies. For me and my sister, this was during the 60's-70's. We spent a good amount of time in our local post offices visiting and being shown off to my grandparent's co-workers and Supervisors. We received lots of hugs and cheek pinches. Every weekend my grandmother would have me walk the block from her home to her local post office where she worked, to take a full thermos of hot coffee to her Supervisor who worked every weekend. That was back in the days when a child could walk a block without an adult in a large metropolitan city. America was much more innocent back then, and people were much kinder and helpful. Those are good memories. It's sad to see what has become of the U.S. postal service over the years. So sad. Our govt is corrupt and over bloated. We need to weed out the corruption and begin spending OUR money on OUR country and needed departments and services. I'm hoping the Trump administration will do what is needed.
OK Boomer.
Trump hired this guy
Well, Trump needs to fire this guy and put in someone that’s competent
As a postal carrier STOP WITH THIS ELECTRIC POSTAL VEHICLES. SAVE MONEY!!!!!!!!!!!
Man, shut up. we need new vehicles. How about you opt out of getting one smdh
And the Benz... Like wtf are they thinking?
To that senator paul, FOH U do not know the PO. Higher outside contracts is not the answer. Each station should have 1 management 1 supervisor and 2-3 204b’s, if we shortstaffed have them carry mail. They get paid enough. You waist money in management like hell.
Management is not properly trained and they instruct carriers to curtail mail so they can make their numbers look good. So it looks like a decrease in work hours
How many new supervisors and new "teams" to attack the city letter carrier have been created since dejoy has been in office? We have an office of 40 carriers, we don't need a Postmaster, a manager, and 4 204bs
Kentucky, one the poorest state of the union pay attention to exactly what Paul is saying! Private corporations would do.
So Rand Paul think postal workers are overpaid 😅
No one ever asks the question, where’s the $100B that was paid into the “postal healthcare prefunding mandate” of 2007? They saw the usps as a cash cow during the e-commerce boom, and bilked the living shit out of them.
Why does it sound like when Dejoy speaks is isn't telling the truth
Dejoy rapid eye blinks more than anyone I know, except maybe Renfroe. They're all in bed together lying to employees.
I love hearing this guy studdering when he lies. Please whatch it again7h hgt
Electric vehicles are going to cost the post office more than they're worth!
He is lying!!
He has wasted money on electric vehicles that cost to much.
No he didn’t they stole it from us Rural Carriers with this new bs RECCS system!!
DeJoy sucks. How is he getting paid all this money to f up our company we have worked so hard to keep going. All of them are a big joke.
No he’s handcuffed by Congress and all the regulatory rules
He has no experience. I am a postal employee since last 20 years. Eversince Louis took over postal service, it is going down
You must be a Union steward and sit in the union office doing nothing
It’s been going down way before that 😅
Somebody call Judge Judy real quick. Lol. She will remove that stuttering spirit out of him by stop him from lying.
Sen. Paul doesn’t understand the postal service. You can not compare USPS to ups/fedex they drop packages off at the post office. They tried contacting out postal delivery years ago “ it was a disaster “ mail delivery is easy to understand from behind a desk, but for the employees doing the work it is grueling.
I like Hawley. But he is just way off base with his assumptions here. WAAAAy off. He should be looking at the managment in the field mismanagement is more like it. Totally inccompetant. 99% of the workers are doing an excellent job. Aside of the management's toxic workplace. If that were fixed. there would be no need to slow down and redirect mail or cull the workforce.
When Paul gives up his pension/retirement and the chance for inside training the USPS union employees will follow him.
Also, when Rand Paul stops receiving 19.3 billion dollars in Federal Government aid every year for his home state of Kentucky (one of the poorest states in the US) USPS will stop asking for aid as well.
What about the safety 🤔
DeJoy=DeStroy. Rand Paul is clueless.
I think the problem is in over management. How can you have a station manager that can't make any management decisions. They have to call upper management
Sorry, but the Senate or the House complaining about money and time wasted, do nothing employees, and nothing getting, done to any other organization..is efffing rich!!!
yeah it’s the pot calling the kettle black
He worries more about his retirement plan than getting me my meds on time to keep me and other retirees alive. Remember the good old days when if you mail a card to your neighbor in your hometown it never left your hometown and was delivered the next day. Now it has to travel 50 miles away and then return 50 miles back to the hometown post office where if you are lucky it is delivered in the next day or two. It cost you 15 cents and now it cost 50 cents because of in increased in fuel to go that 100 miles. My nephew is a mail carrier in San Jose, Ca and was badly beaten by someone trying to steal his truck.
We still do that at my office
@@austinray9369 In Kansas it has to go to Wichita and then return back from where it started. They are not allowed to do any mail sorting in the local post offices
@ well in my office is someone brings me a piece of mail for in town we will keep them local!! We had a postmaster try to stop us and we fought it. I hate how our service is getting, I pray we don’t go down the drain and get privatized. My job provides for my family, and I hope I am fortunate to spend my entire career and retire there.
@@austinray9369 I applaud the sentiniment, as it's the nice thing to do. But with our currently system, you're only shooting yourself in the foot doing that...
Postmaster General Louis DeJoy & all USPS’s workers have been incredible in such tough times and the postal service employees and leaders etc all deserve praise encouragement and most importantly raises for all. All that hard work through the pandemic and even now is appreciated and just like those on the front line in times of war so have these brave men and especially women and there work and adjustments are seen heard and felt through out the many zip codes of all communities in the 50 plus states and I for one acknowledge there dedication in rain sun snow or hostile man or mans best friend stops them not.. Bravo performance USPS with love.
Swollen, Chief Joseph L.arge L
I invite you all suits to carry mail in the winter for a week and in the hottest summer week. Then you tell me how much money I should make. I also request to not curtail my mail during your delivery week. Lets see your competency. Your pay will also be equivalent to what top pay carrier is. And no rest stop to be included lol. I CHALLENGE ALL SUITS ON THIS MATTER!
He is ruining the postal service. It’s horrible! Congress really needs to do something for the postal workers. This guy needs fired immediately! Please congress help the workers!
Our stupid management changed everyone’s start time, latest one is 11am. But then let us come in and start at 830am but we can’t clock in. Isn’t working off the clock illegal? Why not just change out times back to normal work hours. I swear it’s idiots that they put in management!!!!
the republicans would RATHER us get MAIL from friggin UBEREATS and DOORDASH with an APP! LOL
Efficiency by closing sorting facilities???? He’s a joke.
Outgoing mail, IS, incoming mail...lol. its all the same mail. What goes out eventually comes in... does he think the American public is that stupid?
WE ARE NOT TRYING TO PICK UP YOUR PACKAGES FROM YOUR HOUSE!! Get out of your HOUSE and BRING THEM TO THE OFFICE!! PERIOD!!! i had a lady Yapping about me being NEW and not coming to her house every tuesday and Picking something up...SOMETIMES she has stuff SOMETIMES she DOESNT!! MAN this aint mr mcfeely...and this aint mr rodgers Neighborhood... WE ARE NOT driving all the way to your personal residential home to "SEE" if you have a package on your porch or not!!!
this is 2024. GET OFF YOUR LAZY A*** and bring it to the office!
That’s more money for you! Pick it up and put it on your auxiliary assistance paper. making people come to post office makes your route look shorter and gives more money to clerks and less to you!! I encourage bills paid by mail and messages sent by mail so the mail carrier can keep a job. People being lazy is a delivery person best friend!!
This comment is pure GOLD!!!! Mr McFeely!!
You must not understand the job. You don't work for the United States Postal. You work for the United States Postal Service. UPS will pick up their packages from their home if they want to give the business to them. This is a service that we are supposed to provide, encouraging our customers to use USPS. Your customer can submit an online request the day prior for package pickup that you will receive at your case the next morning. Look into that, it will probably satisfy your customers needs and you will be able to plan for it on the days the customer wants pickups done . Picking up their packages is our job
If privatization is in the cards I hope that USPS can be employee owned.
As a 4 year mail carrier I love my job. I came from corporate America and those huge private companies as a financial advisor. The senator from Kentucky is out of his league. How can you say that if a union is the problem in a state then that company should move to a different state?? The senator should come out here and deliver 200 packages a day plus mail in less than nine hours over a 14 mile hike. I do my job with the upmost integrity and these people are out of touch.
They walked through our building and listened to no one…This fight is from those who read a computer! No hands on..
Vote down the NALC contract it's trash and needs higher pay increases
my last PM leaves nothing but a wake of grievances everywhere they attend and they won't get rid of them literally over twice the PM's annual salary in grievances.
Mail is not declining, I get over 2,000 pieces of mail to deliver every day plus 240 packages daily.
Thank you for your service. How many route miles ?
You’re on crack if you think mail is not declining! Put down the pipe, it’s illegal
Cause your route got an addition!!
Nothing but low H routes out here.
Why even move out of PTF?
Exactly! I get more mail and packages than ever but somehow my route gets cut from 44k to 42J…. 20 years I’ve put in to get screwed!! Whose pay decreases when doing more!!
That man was interrogating Dejoy jus5 so he could get a lot for downtown businesses. Off topic!!!!
He is picking apart the USPS piece by piece. It's now a poverty job.
Charge customers $5 to hold mail, it’s usually the lazy mofo’s that don’t like checking their box.
Congress wants efficiency from usps when congress has always been the problem
